They call Ron Paul a "lightweight"

Also check this out. Ron's kicking some you know what! Pass it along if they manage to keep it online long enough. Be sure to rate all the candidates

That is really old -- they claim that Brownback is a "welterweight" because he's "able to raise the money," while RP has money problems.

That just made me laugh.

Wasn't even a shred of truth there.

If we're using boxing terms, I see Ron as a light heavyweight. Good size, decent power but not muscle bound. Think Roy Jones, circa 1996-1999.

Giuliani, Thompson and Romney are "heavyweights" but it's mostly just fat, no lean muscle, no moblity and no intelligence. Think Butterbean, in his entire career.

Huckabee is a lightweight and Tancredo, Hunter, Cox, Keyes weigh 100 pounds combined.

Must not be updated. This has Dr. Paul up to #5 and he's crashing the party.

Apples and oranges.

that link is, according to MSNBC, rankings "based on a number of factors, including organization, money, buzz and polling. "

Translated: subjective.

You said the ratings were not updated. But the ratings you linked are entirely subjective and were updated today with whatever subjective feeling the creator of the faux ratings decided they should be.

edit:
I was confused and thought you were comparing the ratings to the other ratings. My fault.

Yes. I'm still not getting your point here. The boxing ratings seem to be before Paul raised the $5 million because they note his lack of money. The ratings I linked to account for it. All of these rating things are subjective so take them for what they're worth. People are starting to take notice in the media. When the bow breaks, the cradle will fall.

I see what you mean I think, "no deep pockets".

Not to belabor the issue, but what do you mean? I didn't notice anything about a lack of money.

Oh Jesus Christ. It says right under the "Lightweight" rating. "But his lack of money and lack of name ID will likely get him thrown into the water." Just admit that you're wrong and that I'm right and we'll get on with our lives.

ooooooooo :p

I actually like this matrix on what all the candidates have to say with the range of opinions. Would be cool to make a more comprehensive version of this with a list of several videos from all the debates. It's very cool.
